Hay at the Feed Store

Wrapped and Ready to Roll
5 x 7
oil on canvas panel
This was painted at the Waxahachie feed store. I don't think I have ever seen hay wrapped up like this or if I have I've never noticed it. The dark gray in the background is the base of a grain silo. This painting was done  as a study of values more than anything else.

  1. Good job! Your painting has an abstract quality that I like.

  2. I think the brushstrokes in the grass lends a natural feel.

  3. Great subject and great execution. Besides that they look like huge marshmallows, it stumps me how wrapping hay in plastic can work. I would think it would decay but what do I know?
